The surrounding countryside largely owned by the Yattendon Estate is carefully maintained and controlled thus ensuring the tranquil rural lifestyle remains secure.

Streatley is surrounded by hills and woodlands now mainly owned by the National Trust. Fronting onto the river by the bridge crossing over to Goring is the luxury 4 star riverside hotel The Swan, renowned for its fine cuisine and leisure and fitness facilities and Coppa Club restaurant.
In the local area there are a good selection of private and state schools with Streatley boasting a highly rated primary school and Stichens Green is in the catchment for the much acclaimed Downs Secondary School at Compton which has a Sixth Form.
